that this discussion doesn't really need to go further, so I will conclude as well. I was there, in that chat room that day. I remember very well. Like I said. I was ecstatic that GDT was taking the job, if Jackson wouldnt. And I am not denying his incredible personal investment in the films. But the bottom line is, he did leave, however justified the reasons. And PJ has gone above and beyond to stick with this project. His sacrifice far outweighs GDT's, and he has proven that he will stop at nothing to see these through, for the fans, for the mythology. Even if he'd rather not direct. I love GDT, always been a big fan. But PJ is the man for the job. Always has been.
